I ordered my Nula in 6.5 Creedmoor because I did a lot of research beforehand. I believe it's going to be the new and improved 308. It beats the 308 in every category except popularity...... for now.
For a hunting cartridge I personally like the 06' size case with aboout 55-60gr of powder and about 150gr of projectile.
I've done the magnum thing, and after years of hunting have come to the realization that at the ranges I hunt (0-800yds) the magnum offers little to no advantage over the 06' case. Until the advent of the 6.5 Creedmoor I never really put much thought or consideration into the smaller case but seeing what a 143 or 147gr bullet in 6.5 diameter bullet can do, I'm hoping my choice in the Creedmoor was the right decision!
